## Resource

Crefovi’s live webinar began on Friday 20 June 2025 at 17:00 London time (UK), and will explore how the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is cracking down on anti-competitive conduct in labour markets, particularly in the creative and services sectors. Have you secured your free place for our upcoming webinar on the CMA’s enforcement actions against wage-fixing, no-poach agreements, and informal collusion in the UK labour market? Join Annabelle Gauberti on Friday 20 June 2025, at 17:00 (UK time) as she presents the legal framework governing competition law in labour markets, reviews the CMA’s recent decisions and ongoing investigations, and shares actionable compliance strategies for UK employers—especially those in media, fashion, design, advertising, and tech. In this webinar, our expert speaker will discuss: 1. Key CMA decisions and investigations: what’s happened so far? 2. Labour market collusion in the creative industries: why it’s under scrutiny 3.
